BOOST YOUR PROFESSIONAL PROFILE

A professional development workshop & panel for creative executives

How important is your LinkedIn headline? When executives look at your resume and cover letter, what do they see? Are you presenting yourself, your skills, and your accomplishments in a way that will set you up for success as a creative executive?

You’ll hear from industry execs, recruiters, and hiring managers who will give you an insider’s view of what it takes to land the entertainment industry job you’re looking for. Come prepared to ask questions and to hone, refine, and polish your resume into something that makes you stand out.
